FREEDOM PRISON WORKSHOP

I went back into prison for S/S14 where I was running a creative workshop with some of the inmates. This time I was working with about 10 guys who were all serving long sentences in Wandsworth prison.

I decided to base the work on FREEDOM, something they of course are lacking massively. I was told to change to something else as it perhaps could be too sensitive a subject, but I am stubborn and decided to stick to it. Firstly the point being to challenge the guys, and secondly to communicate their stories. The guys were all up for getting involved and they produced some great drawings during the work shops, which they later translated into hand embroidery and prints for the collection.

Thanks to everyone who took part!
